New ticket reselling laws started on 1 June 2018, which address ticket scalping. The new requirements have been made by amendment to the Fair Trading Act 1987.

The amendments prohibit anyone from reselling a ticket to a NSW event for more than the original cost price, plus the transaction costs incurred in the original purchase. Transactions costs are capped at 10% of the original ticket cost.
